You are quite right about Pipes and you know how unhappy I am with Yahoo censorship issues (they bloody blocked my feed from LZZR.com on Pipes) and Yahoo Pipe’s feed output was used rather as a proof of concept. Needless to say though that Pipes are not completely useless since they can be used as a tool for mashing up results from Google and Technorati and possibly other sources (wait till I find them). Within pipes you can eliminate duplicates based on URL thus getting a cleaner feed which can be used subsequently elsewhere.I am sure you’ve noticed that nofollow is the weakest point of my system and we both know why

Yeah, Pipes is a great tool. Just the nofollow insanity makes it evil. However, it’s quite easy to create a filter sucking the Pipes output and removing the nofollow crap to output a clean feed. Having such a layer under full control makes it easier to replace 3rd party components too.
